Last.fm becomes fee .. But not for all ..

With this announcement, the founder of Last.fm, well-known site to listen to and share music online streaming, common to all users within a few days the site will become a fee. Oh yes, to listen to Last.fm radio stations must pay a monthly fee of 3 euros. All other functions (scrobbling, tips, rankings, biographies, events, videos, etc..) Will remain free. This is to provide an ever improving service to now more than thirty million users of the site ..

If you do not use Last.fm, this news will interest you little or nothing, but if like me you do with heavy use (although I must admit that lately I have not the time to connect) is a nice cold shower. But what I want to focus on is not the choice of becoming a fee, which can conceivably be right (and then the license fee is not anything earth-shattering), but on what is written in the advertisement: Last. FM will be paid, except in the U.S., Britain and Germany .. Is this what you mean? Users around the world are different? Users of those three countries are better? I do not know why, I guess the official reason may be that advertising revenues for those three countries that do not require a subscription fee, but honestly I think a big bullshit .. Have you ever seen those sites filled with banner ads just to offer a free service? Well, in my opinion, or free, or pay for everyone, but this discrimination, especially on the Internet, "place" free to excellence, I just do not go down ..

Personally I think that will erase my account, because I imagine there are already free alternative sites (and if not there will be born soon), and above, irrespective of low cost, there is no need to pay a subscription for what, in the end, pastime .. I also think that I am not alone and that many others do not cancel my account, but also cease to attend the site, in fact I do not know if this move was very apt ..

Chinese Democracy .. We!

Look here!

Well yes, after 15 years since The Spaghetti Incident? "(November 23, 1993), after numerous announcements and denials, after several changes within the band, it seems that this time we really .. Chinese Democracy, the new album of Guns N 'Roses, has been officially announced for November 23, 2008! Personally I do not remember another disk with a gestation so long, and a story so complicated ..

It 'a known fact that in all these years have carried out many unreleased Guns that will be part of the 14 tracks on the new album on several occasions (festivals and live appearances in the midst of the world), as is well known that many times the new songs have been "stolen" to end straight into the channels of peer-to-peer (the last episode in order of time a few weeks ago) ..

In short, to the undersigned curiosity is so, firstly because I think we both realized that the Guns are among my myths (still not disdain to do a "ride" in Use Your Illusion II), then why can I see if Axl Rose yet to pass on the charge that he had 15 years ago and then one can not but be curious to see if i can Guns'N'Roses really exist without Slash's guitar ..

Appointment to 23 November this year .. I can not wait ..
